[Notice] Big Foot Glitch Abuse

This sounds like a damn fine idea, but is this sort of thing possible? I don't think anything like this has ever occurred. I would think a damage cap would be all or nothing. I would think the only ways to limit DoT skills would be to make them not work at all, or to limit all damage.

Incidentally, this very thing could also be applied to bosses to give Mages greater worth. Even an extra 3k DPS would be great for Mages, Mages who are lucky to get to 20k DPS given the fearfulness others often have of their full skillset. But that's neither here nor there.

And for people talking about rollbacks... there have been times in the past where certain characters have been affected by rollbacks and others have not. With adequate logs of who has abused this mistake, they could rollback those characters alone, I'm sure. I would expect they could even rollback exp and levels only, thus making the items/mesos owned by all players in the economy not be affected at all.

That's what I was suggesting as well, that is a method of capping the damage dealt by those skills. I do know for a fact they can make it so that monsters can only be hit by certain skills, so I don't see why they couldn't make it so that certain skills could NEVER hit. If you do that then just make it so that Damage over time attacks can't land.

I'm sorry Isaac, but you don't intentionally not put a boss flag on a monster like Bigfoot. That was an error on their part.

Again, it's a method of trying out a new idea that didn't work as intended. Still a glitch, still being abused, but you don't go and accidentally forget to tick the Boss flag either.

Think back on this and compare it to boomers and you can tell it's the same situation. I can guarantee next time they plan something like this, though, they'll test poison. This is twice their cool ideas have been ruined by it.
